How WN1628 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for WN1628 across the DAL and HOU boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: left a little late (~11 min) but landed right on schedule. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how WN1628 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
